School Field Trips

We welcome your group to Beasley’s Orchard for a traditional Indiana fall adventure. We will be happy to help you put together a fun and educational tour for your group. You may reach our tour coordinator, Linda, by calling: 317-563-1487 or emailing tours@beasleys-orchard.com.

We require a minimum of 15 paid guests for each tour. Two staff members per class are free after the minimum has been met. All chaperones and tag along siblings pay to attend the tour. Infants up to age 24 months are free.

Be sure to check out the additional activities that can be added to any tour. Whether you choose an apple tour, pumpkin tour, or combination tour, you’re sure to have a memorable day!

Beasley’s will provide a paper sack for each child. After they pick their apple, they can put it in the sack and carry it for the remainder of the tour. Please bring a marker to write the child’s name on the sack. Some teachers have found it easiest to bring a large tote bag and let the children put their individual sacks in the tote. This is especially helpful for the preschool children.
